OMG—Mallory was more than we had hoped for in a dog walker. We discovered at the last minute that we needed a dog walker, and she stepped up. When we needed to make changes, she was patient with our disorganization. But above all, she a Was so sweet and caring of our beloved Delilah (and our cat Sammy too). She is now our go-to dog walker.

About: Experienced pet sitter. My family and I have had dogs and cats as pets for over 25 years. We have also rescued stray cats and dogs. More recently, I lived with three dogs (all different breeds and sizes) for a year. I have some experience with training puppies and so I enjoy keeping up with any training/habits they have on walks, etc. I dont have any of my own fur babies as of now. But, I look forward to taking care of your pet as my own! I am currently working remote. I enjoy waking up early and taking them for a long walk. As my own rule, I avoid the dog park and any encounters with leashed/unleashed dogs. So, I will usually let them sniff on their walks or have leashed play time at the park. I have toys but I also enjoy doing indoor playtime. I also have no other pets in the apartment and I have a grassy area closeby. It's easy to walk around the neighborhood.

About: I’ve had two dogs! My first dog was a Maltese named Rocky. He passed away in 2017 from lymphoma. 💔 Right now, I have a 9-year-old terrier mix named Lila! She’s full of energy and loves running around the yard, going for walks, and playing fetch with her toys. I’ve been helping take care of my family’s & friends dogs since I was a little girl, and I’ve always loved dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and personalities. 🥰 I’m currently in the Accelerated Bachelor of Science in Nursing (ABSN) program at FDU. I started in May, and the program is 15 months long, so I’ll be graduating in September 2027. My classes are a mix of online and in-person, but I’m generally available all day on Monday, Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays to house sit and available Tuesdays and Thursdays for drop-ins and walks! Whether your dog needs a walk, a trip to the park, someone to play with, or just a buddy to relax with on the couch, I’m happy to help! I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, love, and care while you’re away. Just let me know what you need, and I’d be happy to make it happen. 😊

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. My hands-on experience started in 2015 with my cat Mittens (now 10) and my dog Fluffy (also 10), so I understand the long-term care and attention pets need at every stage of life. In addition to caring for my own pets, I worked at an animal hospital for a year and a half, where I gained valuable experience in animal care. This included feeding pets with special diets, following specific care instructions, and supporting animals with different needs. My combination of personal and professional experience helps me provide attentive, reliable, and compassionate care for every pet I look after! I am currently home for the summer from college would like to dedicate my afternoons to my future furry friends! I am flexible, so if there is any shifting/accommodations that has to happen that is fine. I care for pets in my client’s home by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and kept in their normal routine while their owner is away. I follow all specific instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, dietary needs, medication if needed, and exercise routines. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection so they don’t feel stressed or lonely. I treat each home with respect and keep everything clean. I will always provide updates so owners feel reassured while they’re away--I know what its like to miss my pets too!

Your baby will be in good hands with Temi. He's a great walker and friend to the dogs. My dog is sometimes timid, but he took right to Temi. I would definitely use his services again.

About: I’m a caring and responsible dog sitter with a genuine love for animals and experience providing attentive, personalized care. I understand that every dog has their own personality, needs, and routine, and I’m dedicated to making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved through walks, playtime, and companionship. Pet sitting fits naturally into my routine because I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending my time caring for animals. I love being active, attentive, and present, making walks, check-ins, and quality time with pets a rewarding part of my day. I care for pets by creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment while respecting their routines and individual needs. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets happy and relaxed through feeding, playtime, walks, clean-up, and plenty of attention. I make sure to follow each owner’s instructions carefully so their pets feel secure and cared for while they’re away.

About: Hi! As a small dog owner to my dog, Akele, I know that leaving your pet can be stressful. My goal is to give you total peace of mind while you're away. I bring a strong background in structured caretaking, so following specific medical instructions, feeding schedules, or quirky bathroom habits is second nature to me. From daily walks and playtime to overnight companionship, I'll ensure your pet stays happy, safe, and entirely in their comfort zone. I have a highly flexible schedule and am fully available for pet care on Saturdays and Sundays. I can also accommodate weekday requests depending on your needs just let me know what works best for you! I am always happy to adjust my day to mimic your pet’s exact routine so they stay comfortable. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet I watch. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, I ensure they feel secure, loved, and fully looked after. I strictly follow all special care instructions, keep a very close eye on their needs, and provide plenty of supervised attention.

I am also willing to do other minor responsibilities at your home such as watering plants.

About: I've been a cat mom for four years now, so I know what it means to have your cat in the best care so that your mind is at ease while you're away from them. My Cat Lavender is a sweet, chill, sociable cat that loves to eat Lol. My apartment is cat-proof with all the toys and supplies needed to make your cat stay comfortable and enjoyable. I also have a Vet on speed dial in case of any emergencies. Book your Cat stay! Lavender and I would love to have you. I currently work remotely from home. I only go out to go food shopping, and I go on my daily 45-minute walks. If I have any social or travel plans, I will block out the days in my schedule. I live in an apartment that's fully secured and cat-proof with all the toys and supplies needed to make your cat stay comfortable and enjoyable.

About: I have taken care of all types of pets for 7 years. I have been taking care of dogs for 2 years. I love all! I am available part time for dog care. Nights are more easier to accept due to my work schedule as a therapist. Let me know and I can work with you! I have a doggy park. I have cages if a dog wants a lone time from other dogs/pets. I have a balcony if it is raining for air and sun. I am available before 7 and after 4:30 usually for drop off on weekdays. I am flexible on weekends. We can accommodate times if told in advance. There is a fenced dog park across the street. The dogs slept separately all day besides during play time. We have cameras inside the house and outside the front door.

We had a wonderful experience! She came to our home to walk and feed our dogs, and she was always on time and incredibly reliable. She spent quality time playing with them, making sure they got plenty of attention and exercise, not just a quick walk. We also loved receiving regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind knowing our dogs were happy and well cared for while we were away. It’s obvious she truly loves animals, and our dogs absolutely adored her. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional dog walker!

I had Taylor come walk our dog, Lola, and from the moment they met, Lola gravitated toward her. She immediately felt Taylor’s calm, kind energy , she’s soft-spoken, gentle, and very easy-going. By the time Taylor left, Lola was giving her hugs and kisses! It went so well that I booked her again the very next day for an earlier walk. Taylor was on time, super communicative, and Lola actually cried with excitement when she saw her again. We’re so happy to have potentially found our go-to dog walker!
